Definitions

  • the present invention relates to aqueous pharmaceutical compositions stabilized with metal ions for long-term storage of etanercept, methods of manufacture of the compositions, methods of their administration, and kits containing the same.
  • the invention includes etanercept formulations that do not require arginine for stabilization.
  • Polypeptides must often be stored prior to their use. When stored for extended periods, polypeptides are frequently unstable in solution (Manning et al., 1989, Pharm. Res. 6:903-918). To extend their she!f life, additional processing steps have been developed, such as drying, e.g., lyophilization. However, lyophilized pharmaceutical compositions are less convenient to use.
  • Typical practices to improve polypeptide stabilit can be addressed by varying the concentration of elements with the formulation, or by adding excipients to modify the formulation (See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,580,856 and 6,171 ,586).
  • the use of additives can still result in inactive polypeptides.
  • the rehydration step can result in inactivation of the polypeptide by, for example, aggregation or denaturation (Hora et al., 1992, Pharm. Res., 9:33-36; Liu et al., 1991 , Biotechnol. Bioeng., 37:177-184).
  • etanercept (Enbrel®, Immunex Corporation), which is a dimeric fusion polypeptide consisting of the extracellular ligand-binding portion of the human 75 kilodaiton (p75) tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) linked to the Fc portion of human SgG1, it consists of 934 amino acids and has an apparent molecular weight of approximately 150 kilodaltons (Physicians Desk Reference, 2002, Medical Economics Company Inc.)
  • the Fc component of eianercept contains the constant heavy 2 (CH2) domain, the constant heavy 3 (CH3) domain and hinge region, but not the constant heavy 1 (CH1) domain of human IgGL
  • An Fc domain can contain one or ail of the domains described above.
  • Eianercept is usually produced by recombinant DNA technology in a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mammalian cell expression system.
  • the present invention provides novel stable liquid formulations of etanercept that allow its long-term storage.
  • the present invention is an aqueous pharmaceutical composition
  • a aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising etanercept and a stabilizer to inhibit instability, aggregation, misfolding and/or fragmentation of the etanercept, wherein the stabilizer comprises a stabilizing metal ion.
  • the stabilized etanercept formulations of the present invention elicit long term storage stability as characterized by at least one of: (1) SEC analysis at M3 or T 2 or T of: monomer content greater than about 90%; aggregates content of less than about 3 wt%; and fragment 3 content less than about 5 wt%: and (2) HIC analysis at 3 or T 2 or T wherein the amount of the composition represented by peak 1 of the HIC chromatogram is less than about 3 wt.%; the amount of the composition represented by peak 2 of the HIC chromatogram is greater than 80 wt.%; and the amount of the composition represented by peak 3 of the HIC chromatogram is less than about 20 wt.%.

  • the formulations elicit long term storage stability as characterized by: an HIC analysis at lv1 ⁇ 2 or T 2 or T 4 wherein the amount of the composition represented by peak 2 of the HIC chromatogram is greater than or equal to about 95 wt.%; and wherein, if peak 3 is present on the HiC chromatogram, the amount of the composition represented by peak 3 is less than or equal to about 3 wt.%.
  • the stabilized etanercept formulation as summarized above optionally and preferably, contain no arginine, or are essentially free of arginine.
  • the formulations of the invention have excellent stability as determined by ize Exclusion Chromatography) and HIC (Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography) analysis conducted after one, two or three months of storage at 5° C. These formulations are comparable to or better than a commercially available formulation of etanercept, in which arginine is a required component.
  • the present invention is further directed to formulations of etanercept, stabilized with metal ions which contain no arginine, or are essentially free of arginine, and wherein the composition, at M 3 or T 2 or T 4 , elicits long term storage stability that meets one or both of the following criteria: (A) stability comparable to or better than commercially available etanercept marketed under the trademark Enbrel®, as measured by (i) SEC analysis of the amounts of aggregate(s), monomer and fragment 3 in the composition (as defined in the specification) and (ii) HIC analysis of amounts of material in the composition corresponding to peaks 1 , 2 and 3 of the HIC chromatogram (as defined in the specification); and (B) an HIC chromatogram in which (i) peak 3 is absent, or essentially absent and (ii) peak 2 represents greater than about 95 wt% of the composition; an SEC chromatogram containing essentially no peak corresponding to aggregafe(s): and an SEC chromatogram
